| - I'm not much of a meat eater, but we won tickets for the Beatles Love show which included dinner here. We had a 3 course prix fixe menu. The food was extremely plentiful!
Loved the plantains. Cream Spinach was okay but seemed out of place. Seemed like it should have been served with artichokes and tortilla chips...and perhaps in CPK and not Samba Brazilian Steakhouse. Anyhoo....
As someone who eats chicken .002/10 times, I must say their chicken was very tasty, meaty and cooked unlike any other chicken I've had before! Maybe this is why I enjoyed it here and not in general. I rarely eat steak, but if I ever do, I prefer mine well done, so the steak was not my favorite as it was still moo-ing a bit. :/ I tried to eat around it, but it was very fatty, so that didn't work very well. Passed up on the poor lamb.... all I could think of was Mary's little lamb. (Not the restaurants fault....) The turkey was really good! I'm not much of a pork person, but I tried it. It was good but I only ate it to taste it.
The bread and the chimichurri sauce (?) was so yummy!! The salad was also really good! I ate that all! One of the best salads I've ever had. Also, the flan was one of the best I've ever had as well. Not too eggy.
This place is definitely a man's restaurant, as I think of men as being heavy meat eaters. I'm sure any meat lover would really love this place. For me, it was okay. But it was free for us, so why not? :)
One thing that was a downside for us was the green/red circle on the table. Red means to stop bringing meats, that you want to just relax for a bit and eat what you have. Green means keep it coming. However, even when we had it on red, the food just kept on coming. Our waiter told us about it twice, so we thought maybe we weren't understanding it. But after asking one of the bus boys, who was awesome, we realized we were using it correctly, but they just weren't paying attention! So really, why have it at all?!
